Christmas Tree #1
This was Essie’s first Halloween out trick-or-treating. She’s dressed as the conductor from Dinosaur Train and she was so so excited. This was one of those nights you’ll never forget.
This is Mykala’s traditional Halloween dish. “I will make it every Halloween, forever.” says Mykala. Yep.
Ess was convinced that Band-Aids repaired all injuries. Her tending to Mykala here is so very sweet.
That’s Pancakes for Breakfast by Tomie dePaola.
Via Mykala, this morning:
“Mama, is ‘stupendous’ another way to say ‘excellent’?”
“YES. Who taught you that?”
“Nobody. Me. I taught myself. I just taught my bones and my skin and my brain.”
That is stupendous.
Ess is negotiating with a tickle-banana brandished by her mama.
Compare to last year’s picture of summer kite-flying. How Ess has grown in just a year!
Essie’s third birthday cake. Hand-baked from scratch by Mykala (blueberry dye to get the frosting Essie’s favorite color: purple).
